Battery Management

Wrong – poor battery management can lead to a short lifespan (of the battery of course) and poor performance from your radio’s so what can you do to help? Below are a few tips and pointers on battery management for our range of Hytera radios (http://hytera.co.uk/)

Charging Procedure

Prior to placing the radio into the charger pocket first ensure that the radio is dry and that the battery contacts are clean – if required wipe with a cloth to remove any moisture or dirt

Turn-off the radio prior to charging

Do not use the charger in direct sunlight or on a hot surface – high temperatures will adversely affect battery charging

Radios can be safely left in the charge rover night

Ensure that the guide slots on the side of the battery engage with the guides on the side of the charger pocket

Check that the charger LED turns a Steady RED – this confirms a good electrical contact

The state of the charging process can be confirmed by the charge LED conditions listed below CHARGER LED INDICATION:
